A Wet Bunch of Donkeys... and of course Libbie

Well we have had the rain baby!!! Things were getting pretty serious here with the drought conditions and with out some rain the cost of hay for all of these donkeys was getting very scary! But yesterday a front came in... slow drizzle most of the day with a few little rain showers. We got 3/4th of inch... not much I know. We went to bed last night wishing we had gotten more, but happy that something wet fell. During the night... we got it! Now the rain gauge sits at 3.5 inches!!! Woo Hoo!!!!

I am so glad that I went out yesterday during a break in the drizzle to take photos for today - cuz now it is just nasty out there!



Right out the back door is the three standards round bale - they were all munching, taking advantage in the break as well - How cute it Ted E. Bear - he thinks he is so funny - he was shoving his head into the bale and throwing it up in the air and onto his head.

Gloria was watching him from the youth pen close by.... silly boys ;0) You can tell she has been out in the rain- Coffee and Toffee were really enjoying themselves - it was cool and wet and they were full of energy - I have to figure out how to video again... they were so funny running full out - they even wiped out a few times.

Here they were really rough housing and Irene thought maybe about joining them then decided - uh no those boys really do play rough. Look at how muddy and dirty she is!! Where is my beautiful white and brown spot girl?
That was as far as I got before it started to rain a bit more. Wasn't worried about me melting - but didn't want my camera to get wet... so I came in and snapped one more of little Libbie... too funny huh? Those ears.. those eyes! At some point this has to all match up and grow in together!

Hope you have a great Saturday - me... I am going to watch it rain more! We are expecting another 2 inches or so! Yee Haw!
